During the BRICS Energy Ministers Conference in Moscow, Egypt's Minister of Electricity and Renewable Energy, Mahmoud Esmat, outlined ambitious targets for Egypt's energy sector. The country aims to have renewable energy account for over 42% of its energy mix by 2040 and secure a 5-8% share of the global green hydrogen trade by the same year. Esmat highlighted Egypt's commitment to sustainable energy transition, emphasizing the utilization of abundant solar and wind resources. The strategy includes managing natural resources efficiently, reducing carbon emissions, and promoting green energy to balance economic growth with sustainability. Egypt plans to diversify its energy sources, focusing on renewable energy and nuclear power for a greener future. Esmat also announced Egypt's national hydrogen strategy, positioning the country as a future leader in green hydrogen production. The establishment of the National Hydrogen Council and new legislation offering incentives for green hydrogen investments demonstrate Egypt's dedication to attracting foreign investments in this emerging sector. Additionally, Esmat stressed the importance of cooperation within BRICS, especially in hydrogen transport and technology development. Egypt has existing partnerships with BRICS nations such as collaborations with Russia on the El Dabaa nuclear power plant and with China in various energy sectors, including green hydrogen. Moreover, Egypt continues to cooperate with India on thermal power projects and hydrogen initiatives while expanding its unified electrical grid to connect with neighboring countries like Jordan, Sudan, Libya, and soon Saudi Arabia.
